‘I see a painting as something that is rather coming from beyond, let’s say, and the painted surface is the surface that gives you a certain glimpse of what it is.’ – Katharina Grosse

To mark the exhibition ‘Katharina Grosse – Black Bed’ at Oslo’s MUNCH museum, MONA was commissioned to film Grosse at her studio in Ekely, Norway, as she reflects on the installation.

In this clip, Grosse discusses reimagining one of her early bed works using only black paint, as well as the possibilities spray paint offers her as a material.

Watch the full exhibition video on MUNCH’s YouTube channel.

The exhibition is on view through January 3, 2027.
